This week was so jam-packed that we had to cut the entire news segment, but don't worry, we'll get around to that in our next episode. Instead, we react to last week's Oscar nominations with theories on everything from the race row, to the surprise Marion Cotillard inclusion, to the unexpected haul for "American Sniper". We also review Clint Eastwood's latest delight, as well as other nominated films, including musical drama "Whiplash," and soul-searching adventure "Wild," starring Cal's favourite, Reese Witherspoon. We're on board with a wine-quaffing Kevin Kline in Parisian jaunt "My Old Lady," and Pete dishes all on Alicia Vikander's received pronunciation in wartime romance "Testament of Youth," which featured too much Oxford reverence for his liking. Elsewhere, Bradley Cooper's fuller face is up for scrutiny, there's an unexpected bit of advocacy from Jane Fonda, and Sienna Miller's dark locks threaten to steal the gold in The Pootsition.
